Muggy here with sunny spells and really dark anvils coming from the east coast direction

Very quiet on the radar, but looks like it's unstable to my North, could be wrong though

[Had Worse]

Very active to my N, S & W but I'm in the no storms or rain club for the moment

it may have been locally heavy in parts but just light rain here in hindley , no T and L anywhere near though I think there was one lightning sferic about 14 miles south of here   think that was the lot for this part

Lightning.... Sorry.

[Cambridgeshire Weather]

Something happening outside London , has been a frequent occurrence this week

[pip22]

Really heavy rain here. My slightly opened window turned into a little waterfall!!

[Eskimo]

Having lived in Buntingford near Royston for nearly 25 years, I can confirm that storms seem to always form in the valley there. The place floods very easily, being low lying, so hopefully this isn't another occurrence.

Great view of the cell between Milton Keynes and Cambridge at the moment. The anvil has been growing nicely with a lot of pileus over the past half an hour or so. The base was just about visible with a possible shelf cloud, although way too hazy for clear shots.

I've created a sort of warning page describing the places likely to see impacts from thunderstorms would you like to see it?

Yeah thanks

Can comfortably see the cells close to Manchester. Nice pileus cap

Not much lightning associated with them though, certainly none that I can see this far away but it looks an impressive size and a definite rainmaker for those underneath!
